Going to the chapel!!

I am seriously excited about the upcoming opportunity to shoot this couples wedding!! The bride and I used to work together and I was trilled to reconnect when she asked me if I would be interested in shooting her upcoming special day!! HECK YES I would!! I LOVE weddings!! So I was really happy to get to meet her groom and do some engagement photos the other night! We shot in an amazing spot in Aubrey TX, which had a really rustic feel and some train tracks near by!  The groom to be had a most awesome prop in the form of his 1963 Pontiac Grand Prix that we just had to get in some shots! My own hubby has a metal "baby" that was also a prop for photos at our wedding so I know how important those cars are to our boys and I was only too happy to oblige! I had a great time getting to know how the tow of them interact with each other and loved how the shoot turned out! Here's s sneak peek of some of my favorites! Enjoy!!

Seriously AWESOME Senior Shoot!

From the moment I found out I was going to be shooting this Senior at an airplane hanger (is that even what it is called?!?!) I was sooooo excited! What a fantastic idea!! Who cares that the senior I was shooting was pretty uninterested in having his picture taken (as most men young and old are)....I would deal with that when I got there...but I was for real excited to go!! Now I kinda giving this handsome young man a bit of a hard time when I say he was uninterested...'cause really he is interested in ANYTHING that has to do with his love of flying and that means even a photo shoot that was in his favorite spot...an airplane hanger! I've got to give it to him...he works for his flight instructor for flight time and he has worked hard enough to be just a breath away from having his pilots licence...in fact he may already have gotten it since this shoot was done! And speaking of flight instructors,  his instructor takes the prize for most accommodating EVER!! I have never had such help at a shoot...he was hauling and taxing planes here and there for the best shot and even once pulled his jeep up on the runway so he could light up my subject with head lights when I was shooting at sunset!! SERIOUSLY!!! It was AMAZING!! AND his mom and dad were both along for the fun with dad even jumping in and giving him posing ideas!! I LOVED IT!!! Now this guy isn't really a "smiler", he's more the strong silent type but I would not be deterred...I was gonna get a smile if it was the last thing I did...and you can guess who won that battle!! Ummmmm...MEEEEEE!! Ha! Enjoy these few from the shoot....there are SOOOO many good ones that it took forever to narrow it down...see what you think!

Lovely Little Loves!

This was such a fun and easy shoot!  These kiddos made my job super easy! I'm always a little taken aback when that happens.  I try to arrive with an arsenal of tricks up my sleeve to get that perfect grin or smile and tho the littlest miss did try to test me a bit by being a bit selective about her smiles,  It took no time at all for me to coax one out of her! Not to mention all the rest of the family pitched in to help too! I really think the shoot hold the record for the fastest and easiest!! But I loved every shot! See what you think!

Beautiful Baby Girl!

Today I got to snuggle with the sweetest most precious angel!! Oh how I love shooting newborns! Of course I say that about everything I shoot but it's true!! I absolutely love it!! This sweet girls joined a big brother and a big sister and they were oh so fun too! Big sis wasn't super excited about posing for the camera but that's ok! I'm sure Ill get to catch her with her little sis some other time soon! Big brother was sooo loving and protective! Melt my heart!!! check out these few precious shots,  I know you will agree she is to sweet for words!

Pretty Precious Little Lady! {Babes Chicken Photo Shoot, Frisco TX}

This little Lady and her momma braved the heat to meet me at Babes Chicken to get some precious shots to commemorate her up coming big day! I can not believe she will be ONE!! I've had the pleasure of shooting her since birth and while I missed the actual moment I was there shortly after and have been shooting away ever since!! LOVE HER!! This sweet shoot was so much fun! Now I know her momma is not going to say the same thing about it because sweet little miss was pretty much not interested in posing for the camera but I saw it as a challenge and that's fun to me!! ALL Mommy's can get flustered and worried, myself included, when a photo shoot isn't going exactly the was they planned but with a little patience and letting this little Miss take the lead,  I think we got some fantastic shots!! What do you think?? 

Grapevine Botanical Gardens Maternity Shoot

These beautiful kiddos are about to welcome another one home in just a few short days!! I was so excited to meet them for this shoot! This momma was a little hesitant to do a maternity shoot at all,  like the rest of us toward the end of her pregnancy feeling pretty enough to let someone document that moment in time does not come easily.  But I am so very glad she decided to brave the Texas heat today and come out for some beautiful shots of her children with her.  I know she will forever be glad she did! She looked stunning of course!!! Here is a sneak peek of what I'm seeing so far and I'm in LOVE!! What do you all think?? I can not wait to meet this precious little one and get some great shots of the new baby too!!

Super Sweet Sneak Peek! {Central Park Frisco TX shoot}

OH My!! I spent the first part of my day with this precious little guy and his sweet mommy and daddy! What a great way to start my day!! He is soooooo sweet!! I LOVE his hair and the way its starting to curl,  and his eyes!! Oh my goodness his eyes!! I swear they are the bluest eyes I have ever seen!! This little man is gearing up for a first birthday party and  mommy wanted to get some sweet shots to have for his big day.  This family is stunning and the location was perfect for them.  Its always great when I have a family that doesn't mind starting out early,  for one the light is amazing and so easy to shoot in, and second its a bit cooler in the morning here in the blistering heat of summer! This family was bright eyed and ready to go by 8am! I LOVE THAT!! Check out these sweet shots,  there are so many I love, these are just a few that steal my heart! Enjoy!!

Prosper TX Family Photo Shoot

This family was such fun to photograph!! So laid back and happy to do what ever I asked!! Which was really nice because there were so many of them!! LOL! Aside from families groupings at weddings this was one of the largest I have shot and they all cooperated beautifully!! Even the babies!! We met at a beautiful location in a Prosper Neighborhood that I had actually had the pleasure of shooting at before,  It really pretty there and has very lovely scenery for a backdrop which was perfect for this family of 13!! I LOVE the grasses that I shot against in the individual pics! Take a look and see what you think,  I know you will enjoy them as much I as did!! Click on the top pic to proceed to the gallery!
